  • Facilitate color reviews, as appropriate, and coordinate final proposal production.
  • Maintain proposal resources, including templates, resumes, past performance information, graphics, and reusable content.
  • Support capture activities through opportunity research, competitor research, bid/no-bid discussions, pipeline updates, and identification of potential teaming partners.
  • Attend Government industry days, conferences, networking events, and customer or partner meetings to gather market and acquisition intelligence.
  • Document key event takeaways, customer needs, partner information, and follow-up actions for Business Development and Capture teams.
  • Support proposal lessons learned, debrief reviews, and continuous improvement of proposal processes.
